10/1

Dual sprint winner for Jack Channon. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 9/1) 129 days ago. Interesting after a wind op for new yard.

Brave Empire^t1¹²

28/1

Winner of 2 of his 3 starts as a 2-y-o (last one over C&D) and bagged Class 2 Lingfield handicap (6f, AW) on second run of what turned out to be a truncated 2024 campaign. Left Roger Varian/had wind op, twelfth of 16 in handicap at York (6f, good, 66/1) on return 12 days ago. Tongue tie goes on now.

Azure Angel^t²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: E Bethell| OR: 86| BF| D

15/2

All 4 wins on AW. Well-backed 6/4 and tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Roger Varian when fifth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 28 days ago. Could build on that.

10/3

C&D winner. 4/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Haydock (5f, good to firm) 4 days ago, too free. One to consider.

Form: 124-045

(9)

Diligent Resdev^v¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 85| D

5/4

Went the right way last year, winning the Ayr Bronze Cup on final outing, and has shaped well both starts this season, racing closer to pace than ideal when fifth of 17 in Victoria Cup at Ascot (7f, firm, 16/1) 16 days ago. Major player.

Form: 5051-35

Forecasts

Diligent Resdev (5/4), Archduke Ferdinand (10/3), Filly One (9/2), Mythical Phoenix (6/1), Azure Angel (15/2), Staincliff (10/1), Admiral D (11/1), Brave Empire (28/1), Cash In (33/1), Tough Enough (33/1)

A number to consider but there are more handicaps in the Ayr Bronze Cup winner DILIGENT RESDEV and he makes the most appeal back down in trip/class after a good performance in the Victoria Cup. The danger could be Filly One, who bolted up at Southwell last time. Staincliff is interesting starting out for Adrian Nicholls.
